  So far so good. - 2015 Ford Explorer
  By jrbrad89 - May 7 - 1:29 am

  I have had this one for almost two months. The variable transmission lags for a second, but hold that steering wheel! The front wheel torque is decent. I love the power seat. Costs nearly an arm and a leg but.. meh. Nice and zippy but a little wide for a midsize. Interior design is fine. Nothing flashy, rugged, and not an eyesore. I love the look on the outside but I wish I could have gotten the appearance package. Feels solid. And of course I havent had any issues seeing as how it only has 1700 miles on it. I use this for camping and hauling my dirtbike mainly. Gas mileage isnt great in the city, but that 6th gear really helps on the highway. It works for me!

  Test Drove Today - 2015 Ford Explorer
  By Bobbie - June 9 - 5:42 am

  Im looking for a newer car. I have a 2007 Buick Rendezvous and looking to upgrade. I originally did not come to the dealership to test this particular car, it caught my eye and my husband and I decided to go for it. I had pros and cons for our family. Pros: This baby defiantly had power. I barely pulled out of the lotand it was doing 60mph. The ride was very smooth and quiet, like my Buick in its earlier days. The front had lots of leg room. Im 5ft 10in and my husband is 6ft abd both us were very comfortable. I didnt even have my seat all the way back abd still had plenty of leg abd head room. Cons: The car is not very good on turns. It does not turn smoothly. I also found the cargo space lacking. I work in direct sales and haul a lot of stuff to customers, anddo a lot of vendor shows as well as drive my kids around. Cargo space is a must have for my family. I dont think there is much leg room for my kids as they get older. The car sits a lot lower than Im used to. Overall its a pretty good SUV, but if you need a family car or cargo space you might want to check other options.
